There is concern surrounding AAA Latin American Champion El Hijo del Vikingo following developments tied to the June 30 episode of WWE NXT.
Reports from False Finish indicate that Vikingo suffered an injury earlier in the day while preparing for his scheduled appearance on the show. The issue occurred as he was going over the planned match with E.K. Prosper.
“El Hijo del Vikingo was injured earlier today going over the scheduled match with EK Prosper,” the report stated.
El Hijo del Vikingo Injury Update After NXT Cancellation
At this stage, the severity of the injury remains unclear.
“It is currently unknown how serious the injury is.”
Vikingo had been advertised to defend the AAA Latin American Championship against E.K. Prosper on the episode. However, the match did not take place after a backstage angle removed him from the card. In the segment, Keanu Carver attacked Vikingo, leading to the cancellation of the title bout.
Following the attack, NXT General Manager Robert Stone announced that Vikingo was unable to compete. As a result, the originally scheduled championship match was scrapped, and Carver was instead booked to face Prosper later in the show.
Interestingly, Vikingo had also appeared on the taped June 29 episode of WWE SmackDown. Reports noted that he completed that appearance without any issues, suggesting the injury occurred after that event.
As of now, there has been no official statement from WWE or AAA regarding Vikingo’s condition. Further updates are expected once more information becomes available about the nature of the injury and how it may affect his upcoming schedule.
